First time for everything....

11/20/2010

The Varsity stumbled out of the gate in their first exhibition contest of the season. Msg. Farrell of Staten Island brought all their weapons against the Eagles to gain the victory; final score 10-3.

 Despite the score, the newest version of Burke Varsity Hockey skated to a night of firsts:

Sophomore Teresa Segreti became the first female player to skate for the Varsity. Teresa, who also carried a 97 average for the first marking period, did a very nice job both on wing and on defense.

Freshman Dylan Healey and Ian Bernes got their first taste of Varsity hockey; a little bitter for the newest Healey addition who sustained a shoulder strain early in the contest and had to be sidelined but sweet for Ian who registered his first Eagle goal.

Freshman Goaltender Stephen Herschel got his first look from between the pipes. Stephen , who saw 12 shots on net in the third period, also suits up for the JV squad.

Look for this Eagle team to battle all season. With their ranks somewhat depleted through graduations and the loss of several key players, look to the Seniors to carry the load. Mike and Mark McAteer , Richard Hudzik, Alex Day, Yale Gropman, Craig Mende, will see plenty of ice time.

The Season will really kick-off this week with a plenty of Holiday action scheduled.
